It is a midrange SoC…

The fingerprint is definitely on the side, I’ve put my paint skills to work to illustrate it 
edit: thinking about it more the bottom right thing could be the opening tab or speaker, I’m not 100%!

Yes. I would say it is in the upper midrange. It was released on June, 16th 2020. Qualcomm will provide updates for the SoC for some years, I guess. List of Qualcomm Snapdragon systems on chips - Wikipedia

Oh my… you are right, I see it now. Pretty clearly, too. I hope not cause I like it when camera and fingerprint reader are not near each other. I don’t want to touch my camera, ever.
FP3 has a speaker on the very same spot, it even looks identical as well.
FP4 seems more like a ‘tok’ release than a ‘tik’ release.

But where does the SoC leak come from? Aren’t these just rumours?

Still can’t see the third ‘hole’ being a finger print sensor.
Checked through Amazon for smartphones with an 48mp cam and there where two of about 100 devices. So it’s very uncommon.
And there was just one device with the sensor being close to the cams.
So uncommon but not impossible.
BUT the fingerprint sensors are always centered on the horizontal line.
So for me it’s very unlikely that that will be a fingerprint sensor.
@HolosericaCaligo as far as I know - yes that’s still a rumor
Yeah but no sources known there.
They seem to know the full device, as they tell the solution, from cam solution even battery size and so on. All this is not known jet.
Either they have insiders or they just filled the clip with assumptions.
I tend for the second.

True, but luckily there are still some on the market. As having the LED was one of the “unique selling points” so far for Fairphone, I just hope it stays this way.
Of course, it is all about personal preference. Some people don’t need it (and they don’t have to use it), some people like it.
IF it will be an OLED screen 
And if always-on is properly implemented. I remember a OnePlus-phone few years ago, where they ditched the LED and did not have a proper alway-one-display (which, in fact, could be an alternative for the LED for some people).
Great, thanks for finding this! Two “holes” are necessary for ambient light and proximity. So I guess the third one is for the notification LED (same like it is in the FP3 with three holes).
The speaker grill could be the greenish bar on top. Just guessing, of course, but this would make more sense. Having the speaker so much out from center would be odd.

Sure, but Fairphone as a company itself is interested in leaking the details step by step to get longer and higher attention. I guess most details in the video are true. But it would be fun, if other videos with different, authentic appearing details will be published.
Ok !
Let’s see if they managed to make it upgradable

Considering that the body might be thinner than the one of its predecessor: I do not think so…

fp3 > 9.98mm
fp4 > 7.8
Yes 2.18 mm is quite a step
Just a thought, looking at the video, I didn’t see a jack socket for headphones ??
I wouldn’t lie, that would be quite a turn-off for me. My car doesn’t have bluetooth on account of being 15 years old. And I don’t think it’s sustainable scrapping an otherwise perfectly good car so that I can play music and have navigation over the speakers with my new phone 
. I hope I don’t have to invest in a Bluetooth-to-aux cigarette lighter plug just to be able to do what I was already able to do with the FP2.

What a surprise this is going to be.
So it may be a 128Gb SSD, a wireless earbud pair and and a case (700 Euros)

A post was merged into an existing topic: My FP2: 5 years and counting
No idea if something like a USB-to-analog-audio transceiver exists. (Some doing it in the other direction are available with an integrated amp to save rare vinyl records.) It could help to avoid Bluetooth radio in the car. Maybe an accessory from Fairphone?

That’s called USB soundcard. Some have headphone jack only and some have mic/line input.

this is just a (imho) crappy video with those pictures I found on monday.
from where for example are those side pictures of the FP4? I never saw them before and I’m not sure if they really fit with the rounded rounded long corners you can see on the pictures from the backside. From where do they have those pictures and all those specs?

You may well be correct or your images maybe the false ones, who knows, but they are not the same. The space between the buttons in the video are very far apart and don’t make sense.
